Hilton and American Campus Communities Team Up to Make College Life Even More Rewarding
American Campus Communities residents will soon be able to unlock exclusive Hilton Honors benefits
McLEAN, Va. - Hilton, a leading global hospitality company, and American Campus Communities, the nation's largest developer, owner and manager of high-quality student housing communities, announced a new partnership to provide more comfort and added value to students finding their new home away from home.
American Campus Communities residents who are members of the Hilton Honors program will soon have access to exclusive benefits, including up to 15% off the best available Hilton room rates and, beginning this spring, an accelerated track to Hilton Honors elite status, unlocking travel benefits worldwide.
"We're committed to enhancing the student experience by creating communities that support students' academic and personal journeys," said Kimmy Kelley, chief marketing officer, American Campus Communities. "We believe that a fulfilling college experience extends beyond the classroom, and by partnering with Hilton, we're proud to offer our residents great perks and rewards to help them make lasting memories along the way."
"This partnership is an opportunity for Hilton to enhance the stay for the residents of American Campus Communities," said Mark Weinstein, chief marketing officer, Hilton. "We are excited to provide memorable stays for residents throughout their college experience-whether it's during spring or winter break, travel to an away game, or a long weekend road trip to visit friends. We look forward to bringing the exclusive Hilton Honors perks to ACC residents and are excited for the opportunity for more young travelers to experience the Hilton stay."
This partnership with American Campus Communities offers guests even more ways to experience, support, and celebrate local academic communities.
